Abstract

Much like other learning-based models, recommender systems can be affected by biases in the training data. While typical evaluation metrics (e.g. hit rate) are not concerned with them, some categories of final users are heavily affected by these biases. In this work, we propose using multiple triplet losses terms to extract meaningful and robust representations of users and items. We empirically evaluate the soundness of such representations through several "bias-aware" evaluation metrics, as well as in terms of stability to changes in the training set and agreement of the predictions variance w.r.t. that of each user.
